# Smart Embedded Systems Lab · OTH Regensburg

**Trustworthy AI: detecting AI-generated content and explaining why.**

The Smart Embedded Systems Lab (SES Lab) at OTH Regensburg (Ostbayerische Technische Hochschule Regensburg, Germany) builds AI systems that hold up outside the lab. Our focus is the detection of AI-generated text and images: detectors that generalise across datasets, generators and domains, that survive adversarial manipulation of their input, and whose decisions can be explained to the people who rely on them.

## Featured: DeBERTa-ConPara (AACL-IJCNLP 2026)

Attack-aware detection of AI-generated text, built for deployment: unknown domains, unknown generators and adversarially perturbed input. On the official RAID leaderboard: AUROC 99.61 %, TPR 96.57 % at 1 % FPR.
